In poker Aces and Eights are supposed to be a dead man's hand. I think it's cool but it wouldn't influence my descision on buying a car that I like. There are some crazy people out there though.

Look out cause it's Friday, I'm at work, and I'm bored.

Cheers,
Mike.

Default Boss is out; finished 'To Do' list. Every once in a while a user harasses me about some...

sort of miniscule problem that I get to fix.

Default Impress your boss, get an A8. How do we get you one?

PS. what's your current ride worth? Looks nice. I might have a buyer for you. Fred

Default Thanks. Hehe... I'm about to go to college so I can do what I like (and afford a fast car).

Currently I work for the Gov, Dept. of Interior; US Geological Survey. I'm an IT in a MA office. My current ride is worth about $8,000. The body is in poor shape. It came with a number of dents I need to get fixed. It's about to be worth more though. I'm doing port/polished heads, ported intake manifold, 272 degree cams, ported throttle body, sport lifters, and new seals. I'll probably do some body work too. I'm not looking to sell, but you never know... if the price is right I just might :-)

It's got 135,000 miles on it. I've fixed a lot of things in it, and I've done some performance mods here and there.

Cheers,
Mike

PS - I always thought that the rear of my car (lights especially) looks similar to the A8. Kind of like a baby A8... or am I on crack?
